Option 1

Step-by-step explanation:

If you flip the sign on the coefficient on x, then it will be a reflection over the x-axis. The + 3 is a trick. Make sure you don't forget that you flip the sign to see the direction you are moving the graph horizontally. In this case, it would be moving to the left, so your 1st option is correct.
